Updating index is easy, I can have a background thread to do it. Someone mentioned the "searchable archive" before, where do I find it?
Thanks, -----Original Message----- From: Erick Erickson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 02, 2008 11:12 AM To: java-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: Sorting VS Scoring The problem here is that you'll have to keep deleting and adding your documents in order to update the counter field for all of these solutions, and I doubt that's what you really want to do. There is much discussion of updating a document that's already in the index, but I don't think it's there yet. I know this has been discussed in the mailing list, so you might want to search the searchable archive on this...
